Old marine engine, first start since?

This is a old 2 stroke 2 cylinder marine engine from around 1920's, no manufacturers name or any ID on it. After fixing the magneto (Ruthardt) I got it running. In this first run we had motor oil in the crankcase, because we thougt it wouldn't use the 2-stroke oil and would need oil in the crackcase. That was not the case as you can see. The oil burns and flies from the exhaust. It will still need a little adjusting of the carburetor (Schebler) to run beautifully.

Huomasin että oot suomalainen, joten sanoisin että noina aikoina 2-tahtimoottoreissa käytettiin usein noin 7-10 % normaalia nelitahtiöljyä bensan seassa (2-tahtiöljyjä alettiin kehittämään erikseen joskus 50-60-luvulla).

@robinhooodvsyou Ahaa, hyvä tietää! Pistin ite vaan jotain 3-4% ja kakstahtiöljyä bensan sekaan nyt viimeeksi. Täytyypi varmaan lisätä suhdetta.. tosin nuo öljytkin on kehittyneet varmaan aika paljon, että riittää vähempikin :)

Ens kesänä ois tarkotus pistää tuo timmiin kuntoon, magneeton ratas tarvii uuden sorvatun soviteholkin, maalata ja tehdä kunnon pukki tolle.. harmi vaan ei oo mitään puuvenettä mihin ton vois pistää, ainakaan vielä...

I'm quite certain this is a Gray marine engine made by Gray Motor Co. of Detroit, MI sometime between 1910-1920.
